[python-win32] Python 2.7.11 on Windows Server 2012 R2 standard - Error message "DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application" after IMPORT WIN32SERVICE

[Andreas]

Hello,


I have installed Python 2.7.11 - 64bit version on a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard (64-bit version)


from

www.python.org/downloads/windows/<https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/>

[cid:image001.png at 01D1812B.49530750]

where I used the x86-64 MSI Installer


No problems so far.



When I run the following commands I get error messages:



PS D:\> python27\python

Python 2.7.11 (v2.7.11:6d1b6a68f775, Dec  5 2015, 20:40:30) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

  File "D:\python27\lib\site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py", line 64, in __import_pywin32_system_module__

    import _win32sysloader

ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.


What is the reason? How can I solve this problem?


Best regards
